I believe I read in an Over the Front issue that the C.II designation was for
one of the license built C.VII series/variations -- I don't think it was
Bayern, maybe Westphalia?  

Albatros Werke C.II designation was for a one-off study of a pusher
type, in imitation of the Vickers and Fe2b -- themselves imitations of
Farmans.  I'm basing this on the Scale Models/Peter Gray series from the
early '80's.  I don't know if it even flew.  The C.III as a development of the
well tried Albatros formula just made a lot more sense.

Why? You must build one in 1/72, for heaven's sake! ;-)
You have received various answers to your requests, and i think that the
datafiles must be more conclusive than my old MAP plans, even tough they
must have been drawn by Ian Stair too.
I think that if you look in Hannan's, a vac kit must surface. In 1/72, of
course!

Yes, guess it's Datafile-buying time, tho' IMHO the MAPs often stand the test
of time or serve the purpose anyway.

Yes, the blurb to the cover that sparked my interest notes this.

I don't know about the HitKit decals, but I have the Blue Rider decals lined
up for a Pegasus DIII. These are very nice and still available. However,
posts on the list by one of our very knowledgable listees (Dr. Philip
Anz-Meador) suggested that the sworl fabric had four colours, not three as
Blue Rider show (don't know what HitKit has). Apparently the Japo book shows
an interpretation of the four-colour version. There's some good stuff in the
archive on this (altho Al, I've had trouble with the "search entire site"
option, getting a url not found message...).

But as always, dicta ira applies.

hmmmm - seemes to be a problem there. I think I have it solved. First I
have heard of it.

By the way, the archives are quite large and searches take a while to

Furthermore, we'll all remember you asking, and will demand progress reports
from time to time until either you finish it, or die. And if the former
precedes the later, we'll demand photos as well !

Since some have been having problems with my included HTML
references, and since my program isn't working correctly when
saving to other formats, I'll try to upload the reference pages
as I can and when they're asked for.

So, speaking of which, go here to see the references I have
listed for the Albatros C.VII:

Greetings everyone!

Just a quick note to advise you we have a new member among us (hope he doesnt 
shout at me for this).    Bob Repich, of Icarus books, is well-known to many 
of us on this list who collect books.     He also owns a huge WWI aviation 
library with a specialty in limited edition memoirs, usually published 
privately by pilots' family members.   He has indicated a desire to remain in 
lurk mode for the time being, which is fine, but I thought his arrival 
demands at least a little fireworks...  :-)

Welcome, Bob!

Dave Z.

ps - Bob told me that he didnt want to mention any special WWI aviation books 
that he might acquire for sale on the list because it would seem too 
commercial.   Perhaps we can persuade him to give us "first crack" at some of 
these goodies....

pps - the Bobs are catching up with the Daves on this list.....

Nah, Daves still lead Bobs 14-6, though there are three Roberts who might be

Bob,

Don't know if this helps but the first transatlantic crossing was done in a
Curtiss (can't remember what mark) I've seen a wing float of that particular
aircraft that is (or was) on display in the Airport of the Island of S. Miguel
in the Azores and it is blue-grey.

And I suppose you will also demand minutes of the arguments I have with myself
over why I started this in the first place & shouldn't I shoot myself so that I

Oh, no. You don't get out of your list responsibility by claiming that this
is supposed to be a break from work. Dicta Ira (Have fun !) applies, but
we're a merciless crew and demand *our* share of the fun as well ;-)

I refer you to the archives wherein despite my snivelling, the list drove me
to complete a Biff despite the three+ years elapsed time. Slavedrivers !

The FMP book covers Imperial Russian Air Service up until the Communist
revolution in Nov. 1917.  It does not show any of the later Red or White
Russian aircraft or any of the types brought over in 1919. These were when
the Tripes were brought over by the British.

I'm very interested to know your reference(s) for this. I've done a bit
of reading on the Russian Civil War aerial campaigns over the years, and
AFAIK, none of the British squadrons in north or south Russia brought
Sopwith triplanes with them in 1919, as they were obsolete by 1918 and
the latest types of aircraft were available for the Expeditionary Force
in surplus quantities.  One exception to this general preference for
up-to-date types were the Avro 504Ks which were used at Bereznik in the
north.  Most of the fighter aircraft equipping the few squadrons in
Russia were either Camels or Snipes.  The bombers included DH-4s, 9s and
9As, along with assorted seaplanes (which is another story).
The RAF Expeditionary Force met sparse aerial resistance in 1919 and
1920, but among the occasional opponents was probably the single
Tripehound shipped to the IRAS and subsequently used by the Bolshies
(N5486).  It was claimed as an aerial victory by Marion Aten, one of the
few Americans who flew against Lenin's forces.  He managed to become an
ace during the few months 47 Sq. served in south Russia and win the
D.F.C.  For the complete story, "Last Train Over Rostov Bridge" is
highly recommended, but be advised, it is a Dr. Zhivago style
tear-jerker.

FWIW,

There was only one Tripehound shipped to the IRAS and subsequently used
by the Bolshies (N5486).  Although I don't have the Russian book, I have
perused it a number of times, and IIRC, the Tripe is not covered as it
wasn't adopted as a standard type as the Moranes, Nieuports, and SPADs
were.

Subject: New LVG CV HitKit
Message-ID: <003301bf71f1$77290fe0$44c1480c@courtney>

I'm not sure if anyone has reported on this kit yet but I just received a
copy of the 1/72 HiKit of the LVG CV.  First off, those familiar with the
HitKits will notice a little less "flesh" on the parts though it is still a
problem.  Some pieces are incompletely molded but in most cases they are the
spars which you will want to be replaced anyway.  My kit also seems to be
missing half of the engine, but once again you will want to replace it as it
is poorly cast.  Wing rid details are not bad but over emphasized and will
need some sanding down.  The photo-etched sheet has 27 pretty good looking
parts mainly dealing the cockpit areas. There are six metal parts as well,
mainly for the rear gun and ring.  This is the first time that I am aware of
that HitKit has included metal parts and they look on par with Aeroclub. The
decal sheet  also looks pretty good with marking for five aircraft.  In
terms of the accuracy of the kits' lines, I compared the main components
with Windsock Datafile 71 and found that the wings matched up will as did
the stabilizer.  The fin and rudder do not match exactly but pretty close.
The fuselage is a different story.  The lines look good but the overall
length is short by a good 2 mm.  Again this can be corrected with a little
work.  Overall not a bad kit and with a little work could probably turn into
a rather nice finished model.  For those interested, I got my kit through
Hannats www.hannants.co.uk for about $13.60.

That was the NC-4. . . ... as an aside I have been contacted by a society 
that is building a reproduction of one that they intend to fly across the
Atlantic for the 90th anniversary in 2009. If anyone wants more info I'll
see where I put the URL for their website.

Good morning--
Does anyone have an
unwanted Atlee 1/48 they
would be willing to part
with?  I have some
ice-cold vodka ready to
help further winterize
this gentleman.
Apparently Rosemont will
not soon be re-issuing

 Please ignore my earlier message about this virus it is a hoax. I 
can only blame my employers who normally advise us engineers of 
hoaxes before we've heard of them. Several people, including me 
have red faces.

My apologies,

Hmmm,

    How many times has this warning popped up?  I am subscribed to a virus
database through MacAfee virus scan, and upon report of any new virus which
presents a true threat, I get flash bulletins.  And who is INDOS?  Never
heard of 'em.

    Thanks for passing the warning along, but I wouldn't believe the hype.
Sounds hoaxy to me.


DB

    Wait, that's for Wobbler, right?  Also called 'Earthquake'.  It is not
listed as a malicious virus, but as either a mild threat or hoax.  The info
files say nothing about it destroying data.  But as I really couldn't care
how to give a cat a colonic, I guess that I'm safe.
